  • Summary

  • Our guest this week on the Insights Podcast is the affable Scott McCain, the Chair of the Board of McCain Foods, the largest potato processing company in the world. This is first part of a two-part podcast which focuses on the McCain story, how it started in rural New Brunswick and grew internationally to have 60 production facilities and have its products in 160 countries. It all started in the late 1950s with Harrison and Wallace (Scott's father) McCain and their two other brothers in Florenceville, New Brunswick. The company now has 23,000 employees worldwide, of which 1,600 continue to work in New Brunswick, including nearly 500 head office jobs. The company is the largest employer in both Florenceville and Grand Falls. Scott talks about the company's growth strategies over the years, the expansion of its product lines and some of the challenges of running a large global business. This is a rare conversation with a member of the McCain family that you won't want to miss. Next week, the podcast will focus on Scott McCain's personal business and community interest, including his ownership of the Saint John Sea Dogs, another equally interesting conversation.
